List of LED light/bulb retailers/sites?

I'm trying to look for different LED retailers/sites online so i can start a few projects of my own. I know ebay sells them and i search rx8club and found autolumination.com. What other sites sell LED bulbs/lights?

^ Hey Maz,

I got all my components and will be going to Ottawa over March break to install the coin box LED/switch with my dad who is also an EE. Now when I see my dad, I'll know a little bit about what I am doing thanks to you.

Back on topic ...

I also have vleds and they're great.

Alrite guys I need some help. I am going to replace all the tail lights (Turn Signal, Brake, Reverse, etc.) and I want to get all leds so that when I smoke the tails they will still be legal. Where can I find Leds to replace the tail lights??? I did a search and no dice. Any help is appreciated.

Once you smoke the tails, they're illegal.

You can smoke them all you want and keep it legal as long as you can still see your break and turn lights from 500 feet. So does anyone know where to find these?

I know this isn't the type of LED you are talking about, but this is what I have back there for the BRAKE light and the back-up lights.


Brake

Back-up

Looks better than you might think.
There are also different types that will fit size 7443 sockets, so search around.
